[Ms3dslover]

how old is she?!

[yayjayjay977]

how can she be eight? I'm almost double her age and i can barely do a somersault!

[xTrueDreamerx]

In the USA, this would be umm....I think level 5 or 5. Maybe 7. I'm not that far in with my training. She's REALLY great!! That club is very nice, the one I train at is nowhere near as nice. It's kind of old actually. I think I see a future olympian! :D

[jsfaith56]

[csurvivor7]

Where did you get her leotard?

[rmccagh]

for those in the USA to get an idea - a level 3 in Canada is comparable to a high level 7 love level 8.

My daughter competes in a competition against Alaskan Gymnasts and she is competes both P 2 & 3. For the specific competion they have to be level 3 Canada or working on level 8 or just completed level 7.

This looks like U.S.A's Level 5or 6  gymnastics

[ann510287]

i wish i could do a handstand like the one at 1:50

[system7399]

you have to be nine to compete in canada

[cocoloco4922]

actually this is more like level 5 or 6 in usa now that i think of it

[cocoloco4922]

in usa i think this is level 3 or too because we have to do handstands on beam in level 2

[ilovechrisbrezzy60]

[gymnastparexcellence]

what level?

[blackmarkerbc]

Please read the explanation below about Canadian gymnastics levels. This gymnast is training for Level 2 Argo in the Canadian Provincial stream. (I don't know what level this is in the U.S.) After Provincial Level 4, gymnasts compete at the National level, which is divided into the same 4 age groups. (National is the highest level in which one can compete in Canada.)

[blackmarkerbc]

About Canadian gymnastics levels:

"Young gymnasts often begin in a Pre-competitive program such as KIP (Kids in Progress) or Provincial Beginner. Levels 1 - 4 of the Provincial stream are further broken down into 4 age groups: Argo 6-9 years, Tyro 10 & 11, Novice 12 & 13 and Open 14 and above. The requirements become more difficult as gymnasts move into older age categories, therefore a gymnast may stay in the same competitive level even as they progress in physical ability and skill."
